This is a resource not an endorsement. But here are some candidates worth looking at more closely.

Congress

D4 (Eastern MoCo and Prince Georges County)

Andy Ellis (Green) - Candidate (website)

Lieutenant Governor (Owen Silverman Andrews) is a long time activist for Palestinian Human Rights.

Campaign website has a page devoted to Israel/Palestine. It is titled “Maryland is complicit in Genocide.” It focuses on BDS, Israeli as an Apartheid State and the need to end funding to the Maryland Israel Development Center.

NOTE - Because Ellis is a Green Party candidate, he will only appear on the general election, not the primary. Pro-Palestinian voters are encouraged to register with a party during the primary so that they can focus on shaping which Democrats/ Republicans make it to the General Election. Doing so does not affect who you can vote for in the General Election.

Green Party - Candidate (website)

Sam is a journalist. He was removed (video) from Secretary Blinken’s press conference for demanding answers about the State Department’s role in the genocide. He supports a one-state solution.
